Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to the treatment of dermatological conditions and, more specifically, to the treatment of conditions related to hyperpigmentation of skin, by topical application of a composition comprising a peptide manganese complex.
  • Melanin is a dark pigment found in the skin of humans that is responsible for the darkening of the skin.
  • Melanin is produced by specialized cells in the skin called melanocytes through a complicated series of chemical and enzymatic reactions, mainly involving the manganese containing enzyme tyrosinase.
  • the produced melanin pigments are packaged in granules called melanosomes.
  • Melanosomes are transferred to the outer layer of the skin where they are responsible for the darkening of the skin, the degree of darkening being associated with skin type, sun exposure, and/or certain dermatological conditions.
  • melanosis or melasma is a condition characterized by the development of sharply demarcated blotchy, brown spots usually in a symmetric distribution over the cheeks, forehead, and sometimes on the upper lip and neck. This condition frequently occurs during pregnancy (melasma gravidarum or "mask of pregnancy"), and at menopause. Also, this condition is frequently found among those taking oral contraceptives, and is occasionally found among nonpregnant women who are not taking oral contraceptives, and sometimes among men.
  • a pattern of facial hyperpigmentation may be associated with a chronic liver disease called chloasma.
  • a common condition associated with aging skin is the development of dark spots sometimes referred to as "liver spots.”
  • Other forms of hyperpigmentation can be caused by UV irradiation, result from a genetic predisposition for the condition, or may come about during the course of wound healing.
  • Manganese is an essential nutrient involved in the formation of bone and in amino acid, cholesterol, and carbohydrate metabolism. Enzymes, which utilize manganese for activity, include arginase, glutamine synthetase, manganese superoxide dismutase, prolidase, and some carbohydrate transferases. The Adequate Intake levels for men and women have been set at 2.3 and 1.8 mg/day, respectively. The enzyme Superoxide Dismutase is one of the most important defenses against oxidative damage in the body.
  • SOD1 Cu-Zn Superoxide Dismutase
  • SOD2 Mn Superoxide Dismutase
  • Manganese is also an important component of the enzyme Prolidase. This is a manganese dependent exopeptidase (i.e., a protease which cuts off amino acids from the end of the peptide chain). Prolidase cleaves proline from peptides inside the cell and provides a vital source of proline for new collagen synthesis. The addition of manganese to increase intracellular manganese increases the activity of Prolidase in deficient cells (see Hechtman et al., Pediatric Research 24(6):709-7M (1998)). Another manganese requiring enzyme is Arginase. Arginase is an enzyme responsible for the conversion of the amino acid arginine to urea in keratinocytes. The addition of L-arginine and manganese to keratinocyte cultures results in the increase of urea synthesis (see Wohlrab et al., Skin Pharmacology and Applied Skin Physiology 15(1):44-54 (2002)).

  • Melanin is a nitrogen containing pigmented polymer produced by melanocytes and concentrated in melanosomes within the cells.
  • melanocytes in the skin produce varying ratios of eumalanin, a brown to black melanin, and pheomelanin, a red to yellow melanin.
  • Differences in skin pigmentation are due primarily to the ratio of eumalanin to pheomelanin, amount of melanocyte activity, and environmental factors which stimulate melanin production.
  • peptide manganese complexes The effect of peptide manganese complexes on pigmentation was determined by determining the amount of melanin produced by B16 melanocytes in culture. Various amounts of a representative peptide manganese complex (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine:manganese) were added to the culture medium. After 5 days, the culture media was collected and analyzed for pigment content. In addition, pictures were taken of the culture plates.
  • FIG. 2 is a photograph of two culture flasks of melanocytes, one control and the other incubated with GHK- Mn.
  • the control culture flask PBS or phosphate buffered saline
  • the flask incubated with the GHK-Mn contains relatively little melanin.
  • Figure 3A is a photograph of the control melanocyte culture, containing signature granules of melanin.
  • Figure 3B is a photograph of the GHK-Mn containing culture, containing much less melanin in the cells.
